Cassidy can only be skeptical as she processes what Olivia said about Adrian, thinking that he can't be possibly siding with her to the point of turning his back on his own family after all these times.
Sure, he had gotten a lot softer these days. He has been nothing but kind, gentle, and caring towards her - she will be lying if she says that it reminds her so much of their forgotten past. Of course, she is not so dense that she fails to notice such a thing. However, she also believes that it can only go that far, and she is no longer hoping for more.
Cassidy is done with hoping too much, after all - she feels nothing but tired at this point.
Sweetest thanks to Rachele_Leppert and sleepy_senpai for the gifts~! To all who keep supporting this novel by voting and buying Privilege, thank you all so much ^_^
Just wanna advertise my two new books once again 'cause I am pretty insistent. Do read "The Tyrant Prince and His Succubus" and "High School Again: The President's Secret Lady Boss"! Both of them got badasses female leads like Cassidy but with their own unique charms <3
